After ten minutes of silence.
Ace stood up and walked in front capturing everyone's attention.
"Guys can you listen up for a bit. I know today has really been a nightmare, with everything going on. We can't stay here forever and wait for someone to save us, we need a plan to escape here."
"I Guess this is unavoidable, we need to work together now since you clearly need my strength after all." Dexter spoke while crossing his arms in an arrogant manner.
We all gazed at him with annoyed expression but we knew now was the time to put our differences aside and work together. while I was lost in thoughts, I found a little hope in my mind.
"Does anyone have a phone, I want to check if they are emergency massages about rescue areas."
Freya immediately pulled out her phone.
"You are right, everyone is required to head to HYPER INC, CLINBAY INDUSTRIES and LINGTON HOTEL. Rescue helicopters will arrive at 14:00."
"We will head to CLINBAY, it's the closest one." Ace replied
"We have two hours left, if we travel with a car we will reach there in less than 10 minutes, on foot it's likely to be a 30 minutes journey or more, considering detours we will take to avoid the undead." I addressed.
We kept discussing about how to get out, until Layla turned to me.
"Kean, don't you have any idea on how we can get out without having to fight all the undead here."
I gave her a smirk before turning to everyone.
"Well I have a plan, I think we should go to the science lab, me and our chemist genius Layla can make something useful, and it's near the equipment room which should have wooden swords for karate lessons, then after that we will use the emergency stares to leave the school. It's likely that we will Incounter few undead there than the main door."
Everyone was sent in daze that I had planned everything alone. They all nodded with bright faces filled with little hope.
"Wow, that's a pretty lit plan you got there, and this chairs as weapons, clearly not enough." For the first time Dexter said something sincere.
Isla was back to her energetic mood.
"Wait! don't tell me you guys are going to make explosives or something." Her eyes burned with excitement.
Both of us stared at her with an evil smile often used by villains and we spoke in perfect sync.
"Don't worry. We are just going to blow some heads."
Her lips parted in surprise.
We removed everything that was used to barricade the door, Ace twisted the knob before pulling the door.
He peeked a little before signaling us to follow him.
Outside the classrooms where a pile of bodies, the stench of blood was very toxic.
I was mesmerised thinking that the cannibal might be responsible for this brutality, all the students including the undead which were wondering here where all killed by one bastard.
"This is so gross this is so gross this is so gross." Isla kept repeating like a song stuck on repeat.
Our footsteps echoed as we lumbered on the staircase.
'We have finally made it to the third floor without encountering any undead.' Those happy little words I blurted in my mind where brutally crushed.
I was the one leading the group, in the corner of my eyes I sighted the cannibal having it's feast on a dead body, it shifted it's gaze to me with it's mouth dripping blood.
It's piercing glowing red eyes made me gulp dry saliva, I signalled everyone to go back.
The damn thing already started maneuvering forward. At that time I realised we where all screwed.
It looks like the cannibal mutated from eating the undead, now it's growth in size was ridiculous.
We rushed down the stairs hastily. The distance separating me and the cannibal was now less than two metres.
It jumped in an incredible height. I felt like my senses where ringing for me to look back, I turned around and my body moved by instinct lifting the chair over my chest.
The cannibal slammed on the chair with great force. Stumbling back I ended up falling over the stairs.
I landed on the floor with my back, the impact was enough to make me loose all my senses.
Everything occurred at a speed of lighting, when Ace and the others stared behind there was no sign of me.
They heard a thud sound on the ground and instantly looked over the staircase.
I felt a stinging pain on my back rushing all the way to my head, I unintentionally let out a low scream but I felt like nothing came out as both of my ears where ringing.
My vision was blurry.
After a few seconds my senses came back, the ringing sound started to fade and my hazy eyes cleared.
Turning my heard to the side I stared at the cannibal which seemed to have landed awkwardly with it's neck twisted, the face was facing to the back of it's body opposing each other.
I lifted myself up while growling in pain, I stumbled a bit while trying to stand, my head was still spinning.
The cannibal made a guttural sound and sprang up. I watched with wide eyes as it's head shifted from the back to it's front.
It swang it's hand aiming at me and I instantly raised both of my arms trying to block, it's strength was on another level, it sent me flying in the air about metres back.
Something seemed odd, I checked my arms again but I didn't feel any pain or had bruises.
When it punched me I felt that it's strength was enough to break my arms along with my ribs but something stopped it from using it's strength.
I snapped back from my thoughts when it lunged at me while I was still on the floor.
At that moment I knew I was fucked, I didn't close my eyes in fear.
I kept them open to see how my life ends, they was completely nothing I could do to avoid this situation, I have excepted what fate throws at me...Even if it's death.
